Step one.

Start with an N1 as a base car, as you'll need the N1 oil cooler. you CANNOT fit a non standard oil cooler, radiator, turbos, cams, anything really to a targa car.

You can however build a standard car into an N1 but you need to use all N1 parts. Not sure whether you've seen the price of a genuine N1 oil cooler, but you wont get much change from $11,000 :):(

So, start with the car that has everything you want already fitted from factory.

An N1 should do nicely.

And NO, you can't ran the Z-Tune. Targa Tas has banned it :O

GTRs are heavy beasts. Even a fully stripped out race car is still going to way north of 1500 kgs including cage.

Power.... well as much as you can make out of "stock turbos" and "stock engine"

hmmm, it is possible to get it down to 1200kg :blush: there are r32 gtr running in that region in japan and the r33 seem to be around the 1300-1400kg mark

Our R33 N1 weighs 1580kg (lowest alowed) and has 318 rwkw, can't remember tourque. If you run the N1 turbo's your gunna get lag (wich you have to run if you run N1 spec). But the N1 revs harder so you still get a decent powerband (we run ours to 8500, apparenlty the whites ran their R34 to 9000)

Spec M2 has to run standard weight (1540 kg) + 40kg.

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
